Reaching for Dreams

Sierra School of Performing Arts was recently awarded the Lear Theater after many weeks of presentations and proposals. We would like to thank Artown for this exciting opportunity for SSPA and the entire community.

For years, our strategic plan has included our acquiring a midsized, centrally located venue to grow our programs. With the Lear Theater, we envision both a space for SSPA, and a theater that could be used by others in the community in northern Nevada and beyond.

As this journey begins, we look forward to more in-depth and detailed conversations regarding costs, timelines, and a capital campaign. We will need backing from the entire community, including financial support.

If you or your organization would like to help us make this dream a reality, please email info@ssopa.org.
